Last Thursday, the 30th anniversary of Freiburg's partnership with the Japanese city of
松山 (Matsuyama meaning Mountain View) was celebrated this time at Freiburg's
Historischer Ratssaal.
My loyal readers remember the place.
Freiburg's Japanese drum group Akaishi Daiko (Four Red Drums) preluded the celebration forcefully.
The following speeches addressed the history of the partnership and stressed the development in the relations and the exchanges between the two green cities. The first two statements were translated sequentially.

| Lord Mayor Martin Horn |
 |
| Lord Mayor Kasuhito Noshi |
 |
| Japanese Consul General Tetsuya Kimura |
Afterward, Lord Mayors Horn and Noshi exchanged birthday presents on the occasion of the 30th anniversary.
